Plant the Planet

LET'S LEAVE A LEGACY & HELP TO ENSURE LASTING CHANGE FOR FUTURE GENERATIONS IN AFRICA AND ACROSS THE WORLD

In November, a group of Irish GAA stars and musicians will travel to Africa as part of a Warriors for Humanity campaign in aid of Self Help Africa. This group of GAA players will take part in the first All-Star game played in Africa as well as the first combined male & female GAA game.

This trip will include ‘Flight of Swallows’, a group of musicians and dancers from Ireland (including many sports stars) who will participate in an authentic cross-cultural music and dance exchange, with our Kenyan hosts.

The target for each participant to raise by November is €10,000.

Our goal is to plant one million trees in Africa in partnership with Self Help Africa who have spent decades working closely with local farmers, communities and experts, to be the best at what they do. Each tree we plant will represent a livelihood for an African family, and an integral part of the project is to train farmers on managing their trees for this purpose. As a result, we know that the trees are looked after and cared for over the years. We want the impact of our work to be felt for many years to come, benefitting future generations, and leaving a legacy we can all be proud of.
